'.s A Modem Antique.

A story told of Pistrucci lias its point for collectors. Pistrucci was an Italian and chief engraver a* the mint. It is, by the way, to him that England is indebted for the fine group of St. George and the dragon on the reverse of the sovereign. He insisted that modern work in cameo should be quite as fine as ancient work. A "potboiler'head of Flora which he engraved and sold to a dealer for £5 was afterward sold as an antique to Richard Payne Knight for £500. Knight took the cameo in triumph to Pistrucci. "Where can you get modern work like that?" he asked.

Pistrucci smiled and claimed the antique for his own. Knight would not believe him. "Examine the roses," said the artist, "and you will see that they are modern flowers."

The point was admitted by others, but never by Knight, who bequeathed the gem and the rest of his collection to the nation. But for the roses an expert would undoubtedly pronounce Pistrucci's cameo a fine antique.

A Blow Front

4

Llsn'i Paw

A man entered a London theater in the early morning and found to ais horror that four lions, whicn were housed there, had broken from their cage. One gave him a blow with its paw, then took him in its mouth. The blow from a lion's paw is said to be, after the stroke of a whale's tail and the kick of a giraffe, the strongest thing in nature, so that the victim was dead when the keeper went to the rescue. Only one lian had concerned itself with the man and was now sitting over him as a dog sits over a bone. Two of the lions were playifig on the stage with a "property"' garland, and the fourth was seated in the royal box, placidly surveying the gambols 011 tlia stage and the terrible banquet in the auditorium. The murderer relinquished its prey immediately its master appeared, and all four bolted for their den like children detected in some misconduct.—St. James' Gazette.

Writing- Letter.-

A letter is written conversation and should be simple, cordial and with a flavor of personality, like a chat with a friend.

When discouraged, sick or sad do not write. A letter carries atmosphere. Never write anything over your signature of which you might later be ashamed. Write kindly of every one. Letters are like debts—harder to pay when overdue. Read over your friend's letter just before beginning your reply and then answer it. Out of the heart letters are the most welcome.

Use plain, unruled stationery, folding once to fit the envelope—white, cream white, gray or gray blue of good quality. Men of taste use only white paper.

Avoid eccentric shapes and colors, monograms or heraldic devices of unusual size and anything conspicuously odd.

The Way Yon Do It.

One reads that Darwin never understood an equation, and the chances are that Isaac Newton could not have passed any examination in literary or ac* thetic subjects, with his idea that poetry was ingenious nonsense and statuary only stone dolls. Faraday had 110 gift for mathematics, and it is a mooted question if Napoleon Bonaparte could have passed a college entrance examination in French. But it was their ability to do some one thine well that has turned the world upside down at various times in its lorward march, not their inability to do badly what all the world only does moderately well. It makes little difference what you do—the difference lies in the way you do it. The business world is overstocked with poor people looking 1 or good positions, while good positions are waiting for good people to fill them.

A11 Aadaeioii.v Schoolboy.

The audacity of Warren Hastings as a Westminster schoolboy in carving his name beneath the clock on the western tower of the abbey pales before the audacity of another Westniin ster schoolboy, who secreted himself in the abbey in fulfillment of a wager that he would sle in the abbey, notwithstanding the report that the ghost of Bradshaw, the president of the court at the trial of Charles I., who in the time of the commonwealth occupied the deanery, haunted the building. He spent the night in the abbey and occupied his time in carving his name ou the coronation chair, which bears to this day the following rudely cut inscription: "I. Peter Abbott, slept in this chair."—Dundee Advertiser.

Fish Restaurant.

A "hsh restaurant" is not one ai which fish is served exclusively or even cliietly, but a restaurant at which a specialty is made of the service of fish and at which usually some special fish dish is offered to patrons each day. In London and Paris such restaurants make as their chief specialty solo, as popular in England as in France. The Paris restaurants, in addition, make a feature of crayfish, cod and 'mussels and the London restaurants of whitebait and shrimp. The variety of fish procurable in these two cities is almost without limitation, but a different fish each day requires, in fact, only seven varieties, in the preparation of which there are many specialties.

A Batch of Bulls*.

There are several interesting bulls In the following serious paragraph from the Western News of Galway, Ireland: "To rob a man of his purse and then maltreat him for not havi&„ it would pass muster among pitiless brutal crimes, but to kill and clay a man to the point of death and then murder him for not dying quick enough is onepoint better in the catalogue of human infamy. It is enough to make Irishmen set their teeth and talk silently in groups."

The Efftet Inevitable.

"Borrowing money." remarked the man who comments 011 things, "is not a good plan." "Quite true." said Senator Badger. "I've always noticed that the man who lends money will sooner or later be come sensitive to the touch."—-Milwau-kee Sentinel.

A Better Way.

Cynic (savagely)—They say the fashionable mother of today recognizes her baby only by looking at the nurse! Fashionable Mother (unmoved)—IIow extraordinarily clever when one changes nurses so often! I always tell ours by tho baby carriage.

Two Relatives.

Bess—Charlie, will you tell me what time It is I've left my watch at my aunt's. Charlie—Awfully sorry, but I can't. I've left mine at my uncle's.

Even beauty cannot palliate eccentrJcJty.—Balzac.
